Storyline

In Georgetown, Guyana, Muscle and his mother Mary each struggle to break free of something, bringing them into conflict with each other. Mary (74) wanders on the road, begs for money to get drunk, and sometimes falls down and hurts herself, so her son Muscle (43) decides that the only way to prevent her from hurting herself is to keep her locked up in her small, dark room. This desperate, extreme measure unearths a violent family history that soon reveal Muscle and Mary to be heroic survivors of an atrocious past who courageously fight to live life on their own terms.
